Lambert Viscount Question

I am looking at a Viscount. Attached is a photo of the rear wheel. Does this look like an original wheel? It seems to be different from the photos of Viscounts on this site. Any ideas? Thanks.

Pretty impossible to tell from that photo, but the original wheel should have a Lambert hub, I believe. The last one that went through my hands in that color scheme had Nisi rims and a Lambert sealed hub.
